Another early morning....

I managed to stay asleep until 4 this morning. An hour longer than I had been sleeping. But I am apparently still stuck at home today. The car is still not running. Grandma is taking Micheal to school and she's going to have to take me to the bank this afternoon when she picks him up from school. It's been a long week. Jamie, my 17 year old has Cerebral Palsy. We depend on the medicaid he receives through SSI to pay for the therapy he needs. Now we have to drastically cut back on it. Medicaid, in it's infinite wisdom, has decided that children should have no more than 75 total therapies in a year. And it is retroactive. That means that Jamie has only 9 left till July. I haven't been this angry and frustrated where his medical care is concerned in a really long time. We simply can not afford to pay for anything over the 75 visits. That means even more work for his Grandmother and me at home to keep him from regressing physically. We don't mind doing it, but we are not professionals. They are trained to get the most out of a child. Even on their bad days. I may work on one of my uncompleted afghans today to relax and pass the time after laundry and dishes. I am so frustrated I don't know which way to go.
